Discouraging A Telemarketer

Telemarketers are a bain to many families. Even if you put yourself on the "do not call" list may not work. The fine print for various free contests/drawings one enters can enter in malls and stores may say that you agree to come off the list for a minimum period (9 to 15 months). Even if you do not enter such contests, when you purchase products you can end up on the call list for that company and its related firms.

Here is a guy who takes a different approach to discourage calls. Be aware there is a word that can be offensive to some. I may just try a version of this sometime.

It certainly pays to have a last name that most people have a hard time pronouncing.

If they totally mess it up, I simply say, "sorry there is no one here by that name."
